Tech Xplore / When AI agents cheat on math problems, others blow the whistle
AI is advancing rapidly. One of the major shifts in the field is that, instead of single chatbots performing individual tasks, teams of autonomous agents work together by communicating with each other, sharing tools and accessing ...
Medical Xpress / Wildfire smoke may be more harmful than other air pollution, two studies find
As climate change drives more frequent and intense wildfires, researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have published two large-scale studies showing that wildfire smoke may pose greater health risks than ...
Medical Xpress / Continuous glucose monitors may reveal hidden heart risk patterns in adults without diabetes
Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) are the clinical gold standards for screening blood sugar levels, yet they provide only static snapshots that fail to reflect the highly dynamic and heterogeneous nature ...
Tech Xplore / AI still isn't as good at recognizing objects as people are, new test shows
Artificial intelligence has gradually made its way into many areas of life with abilities that often match or surpass those of humans. But a study published in the journal iScience finds that AI-powered machines have trouble ...
Medical Xpress / Intermittent fasting shows promise in slowing Huntington's disease progression
A simple change in when people eat may offer a promising new approach for Huntington's disease, according to research led by Oregon Health & Science University.
Phys.org / New bioinformatics tools help identify pathogenic variants in the genome
Structural variants and so-called tandem repeats are individual differences in the human genome. They are increasingly linked to diseases, but analyzing and interpreting them poses challenges for researchers.
Phys.org / We may soon be able to read long-lost ancient scrolls damaged by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius
X-ray technology and artificial intelligence—along with the discovery of lead in the ink of fragments from a collection of ancient Roman scrolls—could soon help scientists read long-lost texts buried by the eruption of Mount ...
Phys.org / Genome assembly of rice stink bug offers new data-informed tool in fight against costly pest
Scientists are getting a leg up on the rice stink bug, one of the most significant threats to rice, a staple food for nearly half the world's population and a major crop in Arkansas.
Phys.org / A sharper picture of a pandemic: Uncovering the complex history of the plague after the Black Death
The Black Death is often remembered as a single catastrophic event that swept across Europe between 1347 and 1353, killing millions. Yet the disease did not disappear after that first devastating outbreak. For more than four ...
Medical Xpress / Vaccination: Why don't we all experience the same side effects?
Redness and pain at the injection site, fever, fatigue or headaches: Vaccines can cause side effects, but their frequency and severity vary considerably from person to person. Why?
Medical Xpress / Augmented eye clinic shows why AI-native systems work where standalone algorithms don't
AI in eye care is set to take a new leap with an AI-native rather than assisted approach. Researchers have developed a new tool that moves beyond the conventional model of deploying AI as isolated, standalone tools for individual ...
Medical Xpress / Better cardiovascular health inversely linked to overactive bladder
Better cardiovascular health (CVH) is nonlinearly and inversely associated with overactive bladder (OAB), according to a study published in the August issue of the Annals of Medicine & Surgery.
